Graven
Mind against metal, the ashes of a former life doth settle, a broken river
A graven archetype implanted into the sanctum of the mind, an empty quiver
Shake and shiver in the dead of winter, the subjugation of the flake, all is true
Slowly falling, fading, mine heart is cascading as the angel falls, only to pursue
Yes though I walk amongst the luminaries on high, shall I forever more fly?
As the winged bird of Thoth, Garuda shall carry thee to a crimson red sky
Elation of serotonin's station, Be joyous for Sol doth smile radiant rays across
Elpis doth squeeze and strum the heart strings lyre to please the gilded albatross
Nature to behold, in a story untold, as courage grows manifold to ascend the ladder
Defiant at first for paradise I thirst, that I may descend from mine nimbus, unto matter
Through the storm, beyond the norm, forget the pain or be driven insane, shine ever bright
Hold on tight to regain thy second sight, and be filled with delight upon this moonlight
As the phoenix from the ashes shall reality shatter and be torn asunder, Oh this sacred thunder
A catalyst of pleasure lurking atop Libras measure, tipping the scales towards lands of wonder
